I chuckled at the "I would also like to thank all my family and coaches for the countless money and support..."

That's a heck of a list! A lot of teams saw the same things our Coaching Staff did but we got the nod which is great.

I understand that completely and what the kid was trying to get at. It's not like I am going to wish the kid ill over it. I just rolled my eyes at the announcement.
